When it rains there’s certain sadness
That will overcome a fella
The pretty girls all hide their heads
Under blossoming umbrellas

From their car to the building
Grabbing tightly at their skirts
The fellas can’t even catch a smile
And I can tell yuh that really hurts

Guys don’t usually get primeval
But round a tree you see them huddle
Look for me I’m splashing through
In every rainbow-polluted puddle

I sit and think, I can’t girl watch
Here is something I’d like to do
For every time I see you shiver
Here's my umbrella just for two

Walt,
  What a great sense of humor you have and I really smiled through this read. Good one.  
Yu bad, well, just go ahead and LOOK, then quickly turn away..

The fellas can’t catch a glance, a smile
And I can tell yuh how that hurts"

Very cute...you put a smile on my face, especially since it's rained here for 3 days! Never thought of it impeding the girl-watchers though, you always put a new perspective on things!
